Abstract:
The author considers that the penal prohibition concerning violation of
privacy in realm of article 177 Criminal code of the Republic of Moldova doesn’t afford
relevant and sufficient safeguarding to confidential information obtained, saved or processed in the regime of personal or family secrecy which belongs to the primary owner/
holder. At the same time, there is demonstrated that professional secrecy means that it is
operated by the secondary party or so called secondary holder (a person who has obtained the confidential data in connection with exercising his professional competences).
